and your point is?

The people who wear me out most are the ones who go onandonandon about every little detail of their lives without taking a breath to inquire about the other folks present. If they're upbeat kinda people, it can be bearable but when they're whiners and blamers, forget it. Nothing will clear out a room full of laid back break time like a spoken list of every symptom ache and pain of the day. I mean really. If we cared, we would ask or comment, umkay? If you're THAT sick, it's obvious and we understand. Just sit there be miserable without taking the whole damn bunch with ya! Every workplace has characters that pretty much follow the script on NBC thursday night comedy so you might as well laugh. Wonder who would be Dwight where I work??

I was never a big Madonna fan when she was first a star, but over the years I've been impressed with her ability to stay young and perform like a rock star when the time calls for it. Last night's SB performance was out the roof, in my opinion. Awesome. And so what if what's her name shot everybody a bird. It's a JOKE people!! Get over it. I guarandamntee you that they'll see it at home before they see it on TV. If I'm lying I'm dying. Hey...I just made a new word!

Let nobody mistake my sense of humor as cruel or uncaring. I am slow to anger but fast to stand up when I see injustice to another living person or critter. Especially, kids and critters. Grown people should know better and they're not willing to fight the demons that must be slain to be a contented soul. That is their life, sad as it is. But children and animals are innocent and just want love and protection. Stability would be nice, but in today's world it's hard to come by. I love my daughter and am very proud of who she has become, but if I had it to do over again knowing what type of world we're handing her, I would have given it more thought.

My friend dropped off our Delmer shirts at the switchboard today, a custom designed baseball tee with his number on the back. His wife and I worked together for several years and they've had a terrible time since the house that eventually took his life. As a nurse, she is a constant comfort to their young son who is undergoing intensive burn treatment himself. God bless you and yours baby. Keep the faith, always.

Another young friend noted that yesterday was her twenty month birthday for sobriety. Yet another is organizing her wedding like Bridezilla on steroids. Meanwhile, BG is workin' 7days/wk at you know where and helping some other friends out with their kids. Old Pride is a kid magnet! My friend the Little General became grandma for the third time today and it's a boy. We're just hoping his mama and daddy will shorten his name ;) He weighted in at almost nine pounds and is healthy. Little miracles never cease to amaze me.
